JRNL OPEN CALL [ISSUE 3 WINTER 2020]

PHOTOGRAPHERS: GET YOUR WORK PUBLISHED BY JOANNA MILTER, DIRECTOR OF PHOTOGRAPHY AT THE NEW YORKER AND ONE OF THE INDUSTRY'S MOST REPUTED PHOTOGRAPHY EDITORS!

Submissions are now open to all analog & film photographers: send your best portfolio by Monday, September 30, midnight Pacific Time, for a chance to earn your work major public recognition being printed in the 3rd JRNL Issue to be released in December, 2019!

OPEN THEME
Guest-Editor Joanna Milter is interested in reviewing a wide variety of works authored from many different contemporary perspectives. Innovative approaches to all genres of photography, as well as rigorous technical execution and refined aesthetics are therefore essential to successful submissions. Photographers can submit up to 10 photographs drawn from either a single body of work, from different series, and/or as stand-alone images.

Fees

$25 for 10 images

Eligibility

All photographers 18 years of age & older from all nationalities.

Requirements

ELIGIBLE WORK
JRNL is all analog: all images submitted must have been captured either on film (any format or type) or using other analog imaging processes (paper, glass, alternative processes, etc.). No digital captures are accepted. Works shot on film, then scanned and postedited are all eligible to be entered.

JRNL strives to present photography that is current and reflective of today's critical focuses and societal narratives: work entered must have been thus created after January 2010.

Awards

- the 12 published photographers each receive 2 full spreads in presentation of their portfolios
- each portfolio is accompanied by a small writeup from guest-editor Joanna Milter, thereby providing invaluable feedback
- the guest editor also awards the JRNL issue's front & back covers to his/her top selected photographer, providing high-profile additional exposure
- the 12 published photographers each receive 1 complimentary JRNL copy in the mail at no cost.

Considerations

JRNL Issue 3 print copies will become available for purchase online around mid-December, and will be further distributed internationally following our exhibition programs at select partnering venues in Canada, USA, Australia, Europe and Asia.

Evaluation Criteria

Joanna will directly review all submissions (no shortlisting) and select the 12 photographers and portfolios she feels most deserve the be on the industry's radar this winter. In doing so Joanna will also thread through all the different works selected an inspiring common narrative gifting this new JRNL issue with a curatorial character all its own.
